A Whole Load Of Rambling About My Dolls

Ben : You’ve been sitting there on your own for over half an hour now.

Cherry: How do you know? You spying on me?

Ben: I walked by this way half an hour ago, and you were there…

Ben: …and you’re still here. You keep looking at your phone. I thought maybe you were waiting for someone, but it doesn’t look like he’s going to show.

Cherry: Proper little Sherlock Holmes, aren’t you?

Cherry: Well, you’re right – it seems I’ve been stood up. Looks like I shall have to buy my own lunch!

Ben: Well, you could let ME buy you lunch instead.

Cherry: Oh – well! I could, but I don’t know you! Why would you want to?

Ben: It would be nice for both of us to have some company.

Cherry: I can soon find a friend to have lunch with!

Ben: You have lunch with the girl who works at the garden centre sometimes, don’t you?

Cherry: Yes – she’s my sister – you HAVE been spying on me!

Ben: No, just taking an interest! So, are you going to see if she’s free, or come with me?

Cherry: Well…she’ll be meeting her boyfriend for lunch today, so I guess I could take you up on your offer…

Ben: I’ve seen her around with that kid with long blond hair – is that her boyfriend?

Cherry: You’re very well informed! You don’t live in this village, do you, so how come you know so much about who’s up to what?

Ben: I don’t know that much. I’m just observant.

Cherry: Well you seem to have spent a lot of time observing my sister…

Cherry: Is it her you’re really interested in? Because now you know, she’s already got a boyfriend.

Ben: Hey I promise – I’m not interested in her!

Cherry: Good – because she’s very keen on him, you’ve got no chance there.

Ben: I don’t WANT a chance, I’m asking YOU to lunch!

Ben: So – you coming?

Cherry: All depends on where we’re going.

Ben: There’s that new Italian place in town, if you want to give it a go?

Cherry: Oh yes please! We were just going to the Frog & Fiddle, but I like to try new places!

Cherry: It’s so funny – my sister’s boyfriend was in a pop group, he’s really famous – well, he’s RJ from This Place – and I thought they’d be up to all sorts of exciting things, but they just hang around the village!

Ben: Really? Do you know him very well?

Cherry: I’ve met him a few times, I’m getting to know him, but he’s rather quiet.
